[@rsfan700]

This is spot on. Imo what youre saying about younger artists pulling together unique influences (at least within rock) has already begun with the younger windmill scene acts(Black Midi, Black country new road, etc). Geese and of course TLDP are other great examples of this.

[@sharmony64]

I just saw The Last Dinner Party in Chicago armed with a camera November 9th 2023. Other than a beam in my view, it was an amazing performance. Found them a few months ago online, signed up for the band's mailing list, was offered fan presale tickets, went to the show and was not disappointed. When we got there, (2 hour drive to get the 15 miles into the city) it was packed, couldn't get past the mixing board. There was a small hallway behind the mixing board, we thought we could get to the other side by taking that hallway. Turns out it was a tiny elevated booth of some sort with a few tables, a private bathroom, and an opening to watch the band. I parked myself and my partner there (right at the opening) and setup to watch an amazing show. I typically like to be in the crowd but couldn't get there since it was so packed. I was surprised how engaged the crowd was for such a new band. Like me, most of the crowd must have ferociously consumed every single online video and performance and came to the show ready to jam. Because some of the songs were online, the crowd knew the words and were singing along completely into it. I particularly enjoyed catching, on film, the crowd screaming "Nothing Matters" back to the band during the last song of the encore. You usually don't see that kind of audience participation with new acts. Apparently that was their first time in Chicago. The band's mix of pop, rock, art and dance is incredible. The ability to go both melodic pop and industrial heavy like in My Lady of Mercy is a very welcome change. It looked like there was no (or very minimal) backing track being played. What a nice surprise. After the show we noticed posters promoting the upcoming album release with a QR code. On the way home, we ordered a signed CD. If they are industry plants, the industry is marketing them "gorilla style" with direct sales from their website, fan presales, and online performances that look like fan videos. I hope they blow up (in a good way), I want to see them again, hopefully in a major Festival in the United States this summer. I will definitely be there.

[@steveainley809]

That show was unreal. The best thing I've seen in years. I was closer to the sound board. Brigitte Calls Me Baby was the perfect opener. Looking forward to the band returning next year.

I’m obsessed, and have been since they appeared on the. Graham Norton show. Not where I expected to be introduced to the best band in donkeys’ years. I glimpse Led Zep, Siouxsie, Hazel O’Connor, Talking Heads and loads more; but mainly a great band forging their own path. I wish I were 20 years younger. I’d be chasing after their live performances. It was they who led me to you, Justin, and I’ve been learning so much about why I like the music I do ever since. I’ll keep coming back for more lessons! I dropped out of music in school because we were so badly taught. 40 years later I’m catching up. Thank you. I’m loving it!

The industry has needed a strong dominant band who do everything themselves for a while now. I just think it’s actually better that one has come along being all female who could stand next to the previous greats and perform this well even live.

[@billhicks3332]

I absolutely agree. I've seen them three times this year already and will see them again at The Roundhouse next Feb. Such an exciting band and as you mentioned - so many influences in there. They make me think of Kate Bush and Abba and great 80's bands like Joy Division or The Smiths, with a large dollop of Dickensian literature and punks bands of the late 70's and the showmanship of people like Freddie Mercury and, and, and....

[@richh33]

They are utterly brilliant. Justin - if you aren't worried about too much of your output centring round one band, check out On Your Side - it's a complete (and in some ways even better) total change of pace. The irony about the 'plants' bull is that if TLDP become as successful as they deserve to be, there *will* be a gaggle of industry plants created as all the other labels try to get a share of this incredible seam they're mining.
